Giving dead batteries a second life

Local resident Anna Danilevskaya puts all her dead batteries in the refrigerator for a day or so and says she can reuse them for a bit after they get cold.
“Maybe to run the flashlight on one mission,” Danilevskaya said.
Believe it or not, Danilevskaya takes her twice-dead batteries and throws them on the ground hard. She says she gets a final gasp of life out of them, enough to change the channels on a TV with a remote for one day.
